Neither Finland or Estonia have socialist governments at the moment though, most of Europe is run by centre-right liberals these days. They are generally fine with anything that doesn't directly affect the economy so I guess Russia still has a wide margin of escalation.

"how dare you wanna escalate the conflict"
Hi,
Frontend is built using React and for the backend I created a python flask server that runs on Google Cloud, and I use Firebase for database, authentication etc. The backend handles the API calls to OpenAI for image analysis, and KlingAI is used for image-to-video. Not using the KlingAPI directly though as this is too expensive for me to use in a hobby project, instead using PiAPI.
> Russia seems to have for years spend time finding out the routes of sea cables and perhaps also spied them or prepared some kind of sabotage:

The cable positions are public info, they don't need to spend time finding out where they are.
I am really impressed by how young speakers are. It is really fascinating to see how somebody collect such technical knowledge at such a young age.
Hi,
I understand, I will look into adding more options for logging in
Streaming with a subscription is fundamentally a bad thing for cinema, especially when combined with the streamer also producing content. That's because it shifts the optimized variable from quality of individual movie/show to maximum time spent on platform. But the latter can accept the lowering of the quality of individual movies, so you get a regression towards average instead of a striving for excellence.

Never paid for a subscription and never will, precisely because I want to pay for individual movies to reward them for being good movies.
They should bring back the prologue and the chorus.
Keep the ship for every cable. Should stop it quite quick.
Purry Thoughts is one year old
I've created a blogging platform dedicated to people sharing inspiring stories about how they take care of their emotional well-being and lead happy lives. I'm also a fan of the Small Web movement and wanted to contribute a small piece to that puzzle as well.
This is likely being blown way out of proportion. I'm not defending this behavior but the article listed exactly one example: Irish Wish. I'm sure it appeals to a certain audience but it's not what I, personally, would call peak cinema.

My guess is that this guidance was given to a specific writer or person in charge of a specific genre.
Cars from 2010 with optional ABS? Maybe domestic third world sub-$10k tuna cans?

But the larger point is definitely true.
Yeah, I spent $35 on my wedding and am coming up on my 22nd anniversary in a few months.
I watch/listen to stuff when I do chores at home. If I am going to iron 30 things or knead a dough for 15 minutes, then it's nice to have some entertainment while doing it, even if I can't focus on it all the time. Not sure I fit into any of the two audiences you mention.
We had an exercise in school of estimating how much it would cost for the current McDonalds/Subway/Taco Bell biz model to cover the whole population. Fun exercise in realizing how unsustainable things are.
enshittification is an established term

> Enshittification, also known as crapification and platform decay, is a pattern in which online products and services decline in quality. Initially, vendors create high-quality offerings to attract users, then they degrade those offerings to better serve business customers, and finally degrade their services to users and business customers to maximize profits for shareholders.
You're saying the average person from the XVIth and XXth district are the same? The VIIth and the XIIIth?

From what I've seen from these large cities, the only reason people think that is that they remain in their small subset, which is large enough for them not to notice the rest.

If you're so inclined, sure, your small rural town is too small to have more than one community, and so there will be a little bit of social diversity. But if you live in a large city and are willing or need to go out of your in-group, the diversity is much larger.
Kill Jester!
That doesn't make sense. Netflix has access to the scripts.
Dude on the left looks like my doppleganger...... I had to think back to remember what I'd being doing recently - nope, no holes in my memory!
Thank you! I'll definitely check it out.
I’ve heard “kleivormen” in Hoorn, “klei maken” (a little more gross - no surprise given their famous export, disease swearing, I suppose) in Den Haag, and “kleien” below the great rivers.

Edit: spelling, never ran into the NL word for clay in writing as an adult language learner not into geophysics, civil engineering or pottery
Can you quickly elaborate on the media sources where you do know what is going to happen?
I have a great many regrets in life but if I died opposing Sam Altman and Fidji Simo and Larry Summers in the newest version of their oppressive lies that would be a good death.
I do constantly have to tap out with the stress in many programs, takes me ages to pick up and finish programs. Many people need tension to drive a narrative forwards, but for me it often gets too much.

I remember 80 Days Around the world where peril of missing a connection gave it tension; ever since documentaries seem to have used this more and more.

The BBC Horizon episode on Voyager passing Jupiter was so inspirational to me, but now we just being ridden by TV personalities.
It’s supposedly ragebait but it’s not actually bad.

- Netflix produces the casual viewing content next to other niches, and just serves this as well. The other stuff doesn’t go away, this is in addition.

- This is something you can put on during long car trips, no need to focus on the screen, just focus on the audio, and it’s easier to listen to than an audiobook (which is just a narrated actual book).

- It has nothing to do with “endumbification”, even it it appears to be framed that way. People are still smart.
I am convinced that if we design media to be consumed while doing something else it will ultimately be to the detriment of the media itself. What will happen next is netflix shifting even more towards reality-tv and then end up just like MTV.
I'm not going to bother with any new Netflix originals since they rug-pulled Inside Job, but I don't think this is the end of the world if it's done well. Rocky & Bullwinkle is like this and it only enhances it. Put this on in the background and see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZ7fbc9gMiE
A victory for sovereign Taiwan, protecting the industry they built from the ground up!
I just finished this book. I thought it was a great read, capturing most of the problems (with product, sales, marketing, competition) Nvidia faced in its life and how exactly the team solved them each and every time. It also goes into how the management, org structure, and culture have empowered its engineers to find creative solutions to staying alive in the brutal graphic chips industry and continuously discover and exploit new market opportunities.

I learned a lot about how important not just superior technology, but better operations, marketing, sales, and culture are all critical to a successful business.

The only con of this book is that it skips over some parts of nvidia’s history like the short-lived crypto boom, failed acquisition of ARM, etc. It’s still just a minor flaw in an otherwise great book though.
I didn’t and never will watch that fillum. But jaysus did the trailer make me laugh so it wasn’t a complete waste of time.
So the day, Netflix became the villain they were trying to fight, finally came.

I do like trading stocks but it does seem like it's the #1 reason for companies to turn into shit.
What do you suggest the whole leaning over and adjusting the air flow thing was about?
I just want to add the term "ADVANCED" in terms of foundry node now has an official meaning anything sub 7nm. With specific rules in place in terms of export especially to China. This was a reference from ASML presentation not so long ago.

It is also important to point out, the achievement here is how fast TSMC manage to set things up and running even without the home ground advantage. Intel couldn't even replicate this time frame if it was their Intel 7nm Fab. And of course the greatest record was that with enough planning and permission done before hand TSMC manage to have the fab built and running within 18 months in Taiwan. ( Arguably closer to 12 months )

This also means unless a miracle happen or US Gov being unfair with certain things the chances of Intel catching up with its current team, management, board members and investors, against TSMC in terms of capacity, price, and lead time as a foundry is close to zero. ( I am sorry but I lost all faith and hope now Pat Gelsinger is out. )

Once TSMC 2nm hits the ground later this year, TSMC US will also start their 3nm work if they haven't started now.
Their golden goose was being the first to do streaming well. They just need to fund films and TV shows and then back them for longer than a season. The SV style thinking is what's killing potentially good shows.
The GP was being sarcastic.
This whole piece reeks a little bit of a certain sort of spite - forgive me for a misjudgement if I've made one, but it's almost like the author took that one person's reluctance to participate as a personal affront and treated the "I am not an extrovert" line as a flimsy excuse from someone with an ego problem. It's essentially just a setup to frame introversion as a social problem of some sort and very gently implies that introverted folks have a superiority complex about it.

I can't take the whole thing seriously because it's such an odd case to make - what is the end goal? To address anyone who may experience social anxiety or just a reluctance to join in a completely new social situation, and say, "No, whatever you might have going on in your head is completely untrue, dude, trust me"? I mean, there's not a morsel of objectivity or grace anywhere in the whole thing, just an admonishment for people who aren't wired the same way the author is.

The feeling I get here is essentially that the author wanted to feel like they're in the right about how they see a social event should go, decided to write it up in a way that sounds very serious and selfless and in the best interest of all the introverts out there, and share it so that they... maybe get a good debate going? I don't know.

When it comes to individual behavior in group settings, it's hard to really say where a particular person may be coming from in terms of how they perceive psychological safety and comfort, or if they are misjudging their decision to participate for a reason that has nothing to do with the situation itself. People may participate in different ways, people may drop off or leave for different reasons. Which is fine, it's part of the social contract we have with each other. It might hurt sometimes, but it's a part of the thing.

And there are already quite a few workarounds for this sort of thing too? The whole notion of plus-ones in social affairs is partly so that you're not left feeling isolated once the event is rolling. Large organizations have onboarding buddies and pair work sessions to get folks up to speed. Some clubs have chaperones or one-on-one buddies for new joiners. These are all patterns that exist. There's no evidence of any of this in the anecdote or the rest of the write-up. And again, this is subjective, but to me it all reads like it's dripping with condescension.

If "introversion is not an excuse, you need to work on it for your own good, trust me because I know better and have read a few books" is the takeaway here, then yeesh, maybe the author hasn't given the matter of introversion or extraversion any real thought beyond "phew, I'm so glad I know better because I'm doing so good" and "I wish those introverts tried harder instead of sitting around thinking they know better".
Exactly. The one example they use gets a 5.2 on IMDB and 42% on rotten tomatoes.

Not all movies are high art, nor should they be. It’s for a certain audience. We’ve had crappy made-for-TV movies since long before streaming and it hasn’t been the death of cinema.
By the downvote I suspect you find this description of inattention, or chores, offensive. How is that, the complete inability to focus and the emotional hostility you imagine about it, not a form of ADHD?
FWIW the US is also 100% aware of this. See the Proud Prophet wargames. [1] It was one of the most extensive, largescale, and 'realistic' wargames ever executed. It was essentially working out a variety of military strategies to try to gain an edge over the USSR - demonstrative nuclear strikes, limited-scale nuclear war, decapitation strikes against leadership, and so on.

The outcome of literally every single scenario was essentially the end of the world with billions dead and the Northern Hemisphere rendered largely inhospitable. This wargame was carried out in 1983. Its conclusion lead the US military and leadership to change course from the previous pattern of escalation as a means of victory, to de-escalation and collaboration. By 1991 the Soviet Union would collapse with their leaders holding hands with American leaders.

Lossy compression is extremely useful and you use it every day. Whether you're listening to music, having a call or looking at a video, most of the time you'll be on the receiving end of lossy compression.

Yes: to specialists that have typically another 5 years of formal education on top. They do not refer patients for relatively trivial topics covered in the first year of a bachelor‘s degree.
Ian, I emailed you a couple years ago when I felt Bench had become worse and worse for customers. I was sad to discover that you’d left and I felt the difference was definitely attributable to your departure. I switched providers shortly thereafter.

So, speaking as a former customer, the tragedy and timeline you mention pass the sniff test for me. So glad your next venture has been going well for you!
It’s just slop par excellence. I’ve been watching a number of movies with my wife over Christmas. Everything is so bland, repetitive and ‘design by committee’. It goes further than merely announcing what the characters are doing (in that new wannabe Die Hard movie we hear that they are expecting a baby three times in 5 minutes), you just know there are certain metrics used for every genre of movie accounting for every minute: “if it’s an action film with no action scene in the first 10 minutes then the audience loses interest”. They are all so soulless.

And this is fine when you realise that Netflix replaces direct-to-video movies and not that of cinema, as much as they refuse to admit.
Haha how cool, are you on the 38c3 too?
Why do you need something on in the background?
Most experts agree that the best way to de-escalate conflict with Russia is to show them overwhelming force.

Diplomacy, compromise and all soft stuff that doesn't work with Russian culture. They see it as weakness, and push further. But when you show them force, that they can respect.
Valentine to Harry Hart, “You know what this is like? It’s like those old movies we both love. Now, I’m going to tell you my whole plan, and then I’m going to come up with some absurd and convoluted way to kill you, and you’ll find an equally convoluted way to escape.”
I find that statement entertaining.
Another clue: there is no way to download the latex, while you can if someone uploaded the latex on arxiv.
Moscow had issues with Kiev before Americas were found by Europeans. And invaded it multiple times, many of them successfully. Including in 20th century. With a genocide. Bucha was not something strange when you take into account last 100 years. Or 1000.
Batteries, yes. And there's an emergency generator that runs on diesel (big ships run on "bunker oil") which can be started with batteries or manually.

My wife considers “show, don’t tell” shows confusing and just bad. More dialogue, better the show.

She chooses to watch shows in which characters address each other with full names and say their intentions out loud. My brain hurts.
I'm thinking about unsubscribing from Netflix, only my wife discovered they have Friends. So I'm not.

It's not the new stuff that pulls me into Netflix. Instead I go to Paramount+. As it turns out, these guys actually know how to tell a compelling story. Nobody is more surprised than me!
>Like you said- it requires using loose clearances which makes for a noisy, oil burning, short lived, and low performance engine... not what you want in a Porsche.

Thats opposite of what I said :) Only the startup noise applies, but lets not pretend M96 sound great :)

When something becomes veblen good logic goes out the window. >$100K 30 year old car restorations arent meant to make them peak performers, it becomes matched numbers everything as factory wankfest for cars sitting in a collection or driven only occasionally on the weekends. There is very little incentive doing cheap repair when everyone believes in expensive ones.

>There's tons of the 2.7 and 3.2 M96 Boxster engines out there still running great with 300k+ miles, and you can buy a good used one for a few grand.

Wanna bet they all have scored cylinders? :) Same goes for BMW Nikasil, no such thing as cheap used block with intact coating.
Can you please explain what this optimized video ecosystem of youtube is actually optimized for other than clickbait? Maybe it works for others but i fell into this for a while and now i look at it in disgust.
I hate those management arrogance. Reminds me a teacher that amply mocked me in front of the class to have mentioned Light Pollution [0] (I heard about in a youngster science magazine) during a chapter about... "various pollution type"!

Do you have a written record of the conversation?

I did not read the pdf, but I think that LLM and Lean could be useful tools for mathematiceans to prove or refute theorems, but the creative idea that sparks knowledge and new theorems lies in the human, the others are tools that can help to reduce time and effort needed and so, indirectly, they can foster and enhance creativity. It also could mitigate some reasoning that require mechanical prove of many details. Anyway, what I just said seems simple and clear, and in no way would it be worth to be published in a high ranking math journal.
The car can't keep time? How is the dashboard clock always right?
The source, https://www.nplusonemag.com/issue-49/essays/casual-viewing/, seems like a much better article.

But it is hilarious in a meta kind of way that a bottom feeder "summarize real writing done by others, and slap on a clickbait headline" website pretends to have the moral high ground on this issue. I wonder what the guidance they give t to their writers is, and what metrics they're pushed to improve.
This feels weird af to me ... there's a place for highschool friends and I cherish and miss some of them. But there's also a place for striving forward into a world and meeting and learning with new people.

Personally, family and the closest of close (family) friends are the constant. Beyond that, it feels like retreat into mundanity ... like Facebook.
You’re right that it’s not inherently unique to EVs, but it started with EVs and now this new dangerously fragile design (of having a single monolithic computer console handle display and control of everything from critical drive modes and gauge display, to non critical things like music and playing fart noise jokes) is infecting ICE cars too (e.g. BMWs new touch screen AC controls and unified touch screen dashboards rolling out to all new cars, Audi doing something similar now, etc. — all following after Tesla, but with crappier software).

I’ve owned and driven EVs from several brands. Prior to this, I could pretty much always expect the following from my car:

1. The drivetrain always operates normally and safely (aside from some actual mechanical failure) with no computer glitches.

2. I can always see my speed and gear selector state on a dashboard somewhere, even when (not if) the infotainment screen crashes and reboots. I’ve had (2010-2020ish era) Lexus, Audi, and others have infotainment glitches, crashes, and reboots, but the speedometer, drive train, and AC all had physical controls running on isolated systems and so they always continued to work through a reboot or glitch of the infotainment.

3. The AC is always operating (aside from some actual mechanical failure) with no computer glitches or lag to my ability to control it. I consider this a critical safety system given that many drive in climates with weather that can be dangerously hot or cold.

In pretty much every EV I’ve owned, none of these have been true except maybe #1, and that is pretty sad to say that the only thing that hasn’t happened is my entire cars wheels locking up on the highway (and yet still this is reported happening for many EV brands, Tesla, Audi, and Porsche at least come to mind where I’ve read stories).

It’s insane to me that it’s even possible for the cars computers rebooting to entail AC shutting down, not being able to see your speed, etc. If this EVER happens, the entire vehicle line should legally require a recall until it’s guaranteed this won’t happen. We have ways of guaranteeing computer systems don’t fail like this to extremely high probability — car companies only don’t do it because it’s expensive and more complex than just throwing all the same crappy software into one single system rather than designing multiple isolated fault tolerant systems.

Less horrible but still shockingly bad regression is how almost all modern cars AC is controlled through an often laggy computer system (not to mention the almost universally despised move of AC controls to touch screens, instead of physical controls). Maybe not so laggy on Tesla, but in my experience both BMW and Audi have AC control touch screens which sometimes respond but occasionally can have 1-10 second random lags before anything responds. Presumably due to garbage collector lag or something. But this is also a mild safety issue since the lack of predictable behavior from common controls makes it very distracting when trying to so something so common and simple as adjusting the temperature that should just be as simple as a simple physical button or knob.
Demystifying Debuggers, Part 3: Kernel Support for Debuggers
My personal experience is the opposite. There is no control on the produce on grandma's backyard and therefore we have no idea how much chemicals she is using. Probably she doesn't know either. But I'm sure of one thing: she definitely uses chemicals if she wants to eat (or sell) those apples. Chemical-free agriculture is more demanding and the grandma doesn't have an incentive to invest in it. After all, using chemicals is what she learned growing up and therefore is the "traditional" way.
Sure that takes a lot of time but why would the car be out of fob range? If you care about 15 minutes of scraping snow why is the car parked out of fob range and also still in cell service somehow?
Yes it does. Also good example. I just like how it utilizes the small space of the app icon to provide the essence value of the app.
The whole ARM acquisition attempt really smelt of subtle stock market games, because the alleged benefits of such a deal made no sense. With the Arm CEO being ex Nvidia I'm sure he was in on it. Looking forward to someone writing up an account of what really happened.
This paper is doing exactly that though, handwaving with a couple of floats. The paper is just a collection of observations about what their implementation of shapley value analysis gives for a few variations of a prompt.
